I was traveling with my very senior parents and staff offered to relocate them to a ground floor room as I'd not thought to request it.
Dining doesn't have a ton of options but what you get is exquisite and the service is friendly and attentive.

We booked this at the last minute and arrived just 15 minutes before the kitchen was to close. They were very helpful and made sure we got seated and fed on a cold rainy night. This hotel is very close to the shops in town, perfect for a book holiday. The staff was very helpful in locating and directing me to a place that could help me ship my books back home.

Nice greeting when we arrived,our room was alright comfortable but slightly shabby.Clean though.we had a cream tea in the afternoon which really wasn’t very good at all,the scone turned to dust after I cut into it,making it almost impossible to spread anything on it.
We had a good nights sleep the bed was comfortable
The breakfast was disappointing,couldn’t finish my sausage
Throughout our stay there was a strange smell in the building.

The Swan is a great place to stay, conveniently located near the center of town with easy access to a laundry, an ATM, a Post Office, restaurants and shopping.
The staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served and the pub offers light options between meals. Top ratings.

It was a lovely hotel. Maybe the restaurant could have had better service as it was slow. The floor of our room was noisy and uneven. But it was nicely located and the staff catered to my every whim. 😊

Excellent location. Would stay there again. Highly recommend.
5.0 / 10.0
Lovely clean comfortable room, beautifully decorated! Would point out that not all of the deluxe rooms have separate shower and bath as described on Hotels.com though. (shame as that was our reason for choosing a deluxe room!) Parking onsite and we were able to check in early. Comfortable bars and dining room. Unfortunately our dinner booking was not recorded and we were told the kitchen was closing when we went down, this made us feel uncomfortable and rushed with our meal. Food and service were excellent though. Very good breakfast - good choices on the menu although limited continental options - no croissants that day. We had a lovely stay and would have stayed longer if we could!

The room was comfortable and warm. Enough space to relax. Good shower but the bath was a little uncomfortable - too big! Very helpful staff.
The TV system is not linked to the internet so can't get netflix, firestick, on demand or catch up.

5.0 / 10.0
Lovely comfortable room (even with the heat!) with an incredible view. Beer garden was a great space to have a drink in. All the staff we met were so helpful, a real credit to the Swan. Only negative was the price of food was a bit high but I appreciate costs of ingredients are probably huge nowadays with inflation...

Beautiful room. Spotless. Great food and drink options on property. Located within walking distance of all of the ships and castle.

The staff were very helpful and the food was good value. My only problem was the stairs to the room there were too many but that is just my arthritic knees!! I was just about to go up and a member of staff ran over and carried my case up. Staff were excellent

Excellent location at edge of town center with easy walking access. Very clean well kept property and room. Really nice garden for outdoor drinks or meals. Food was ample and good at reasonable prices, more pub style than fine dining. The parking courtyard was tight, but we did always find a spot. Staff attentive and friendly.

Can't think of anything we did not like.
3.0 / 10.0
We stayed two nights, the staff were very welcoming and the room had a lovely view over the garden and countryside. The breakfast was excellent in the lovely Garden Room. Parking could be a problem if the hotel is full, we had no problem but heard of others that could not get into the car park. Good location for exploring Hay-on-Wye as the town is just a short walk. Would stay again if in the area.

This property was as expected but the servicing of the room was not up to standard. We put this down to Covid restrictions.

Room would not be serviced unless request made, not enough coffee etc, bathroom supplies for two night stay.
Small bedroom and bathroom for the price.
